Certain people were making a fuss over Biden not attending the coronation, like the DUP (who are kind of like the Northern Irish equivalent of the GOP) and Trump snarling that the US insulted the UK by doing so. Is it standard for the POTUS not to attend a coronation?
No President has ever attended the coronation of a British sovereign, so it would have been unprecedented if Biden had attended King Charles III's coronation.
Don't forget that the United States was literally created by rebelling and fighting against the King of England. There was no "special relationship" until the 20th Century. The U.S.-UK relationship was hostile through a large part of the 19th Century, with two all-out wars between the countries and simmering tensions through the Civil War.
Presidents didn't begin traveling internationally while in office until the beginning of the 20th Century, and even then, it wasn't something really done all that regularly until after World War II. King Edward VIII abdicated before he was crowned and King George VI's coronation was in 1937. So, during the time that Presidents have regularly attended international events there have only been two coronations (Elizabeth II's in 1953 and the King's coronation last weekend), and it's not the type of event that American Presidents normally attend personally.
President Biden was the first incumbent President to attend the funeral of a British monarch. When King George VI died in 1952, the United States was represented by Secretary of State Dean Acheson. General Dwight D. Eisenhower, who ran for President later that year, also attended, but he was Supreme Commander of NATO at the time and as Supreme Allied Commander during World War II, he had worked closely with the British and King George. When King Edward VII died in 1910, former President Theodore Roosevelt attended his funeral and that was a pretty big deal at the time, so it shows how unprecedented these types of things still can be.

Kate, William arrive at coronation: Princess stuns in Alexander McQueen dress, royal jewels
It’s a royal flush.
Prince William and Kate Middleton seemed their regal finest as they arrived at the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla on Saturday morning.
The Prince and Princess of Wales had been seen arriving after King Charles and Queen Camilla, sparking hypothesis they had been late.
However, the royal couple was well worth the wait, with Kate beautiful in an Alexander…

Happy Coronation Day to King Charles III!
Our celebration cake is a Victoria Sponge cake made with ingredients from the Duchy Organic range of groceries and produce.
The Duchy Organic is an organic and sustainable food brand founded by then Prince Charles in 1990 that helped make organic groceries mainstream in the UK.
Victoria Sponge cake is two generously sized layers of soft vanilla flavoured sponge cake with strawberry jam and clotted cream filling.
The edible flowers are Cowslips (Primula veris) and Lilac (Syringa reticulata). The cut out figures make the already delicious cake into a cute diorama.
In keeping with his majesty's interest in saving the environment, the backdrop is a reusable shopping bag with his official portrait.
God save the King!

Nicole Scherzinger’s ‘real-life’ princess moment at coronation concert
Don’t cha wish you were performing at the coronation concert like her?
Nicole Scherzinger had a “real-life” Disney princess moment Sunday as she belted out “Reflections” from the classic Disney movie “Mulan” on the grounds of Windsor Castle at the coronation concert for the freshly crowned King Charles III, 74, and Queen Camilla, 75.
The concert, which was attended by more than 20,000 royal…

My Boundaries For Those Who Disrespect the British Monarchy
Yesterday, I had to unfollow an account here on Tumblr because the user in question posted a pic of King Charles in his coronation regalia moments after he was crowned with the words, "Oh, look, parasite-in-chief wearing an idiot hat," beneath it.
People don't have to like King Charles, the monarchy, or the Royal Family. But I will not put up with people calling the King or any other British Royal nasty names and calling the British Coronation Crown an idiot hat.
In fact, here's a brief history lesson on the Crown. The Coronation Crown is also called St. Edward's Crown. It is linked to St. Edward the Confessor, an English King and that's why it's called St. Edward's Crown. So the Crown is linked to a King of England who is also a saint in several Christian sects, including the Church of England.
People are of course allowed free speech, but it has consequences. And my consequences/boundaries for calling any British Royal or a piece of the British royal regalia mean-spirited names is I will unfollow those who do so. And even if such insults are meant as jokes, then they are in very poor taste.
It's sad because the account in question was an autism account. I follow quite a few autism accounts because it's nice to have a bunch of people with autism to follow on here.
